2023 Austrian Grand Prix
- Mercedes left scratching heads by lack of performance at Austrian GP
- Verstappen’s determination to grab every point makes him a record-breaker
- Austrian GP track limits farce was avoidable like ‘IndyGate’ and Spa 2021 – Brown
- Alpine now “definitely beatable” for McLaren after upgrade – Brown

If McLaren’s pace is real, then will they overthrow Alpine by the end of the season?
Seems VERY possible.

Perez only needs three DNFs from
his teammate and to win three races to pull ahead. Anything can happen, folks.
